Administer An Estate Plan
Anaheim Living Trust Lawyers Discuss How To Administer Trusts
Often, a California wills and trusts lawyer advises clients to use trusts to pass assets to their loved ones when they die. That’s because living trusts offer so many advantages over traditional wills. But it’s a misconception to think that setting up a living trust enables beneficiaries to take property automatically, without any further administration. On the contrary, once the creator of a living trust passes away, the successor trustee takes on multiple duties and responsibilities. When someone needs to administer an estate plan we are here to help the trustee or administrator to follow the correct process in California.
